The Pines first opened in 1944 as a movie theater and live music venue on the corner of Joy and Court. It’s where a 10-year-old Dolly Parton played her first sold-out show, and its stage hosted country legends like Roy Acuff, Chet Atkins, and June Carter Cash. Compass rebuilt it as its first entertainment concept, designing a modern space around the original walls.
Since reopening in December 2022 as a family-friendly restaurant, bar, and games concept, The Pines has become Downtown Sevierville’s social corner. It was nominated for Best New Attraction in the USA TODAY 10Best 2024 Readers’ Choice Awards.
